I wanted to say that I hope Kiya doesn't give up on the Forum because of this issue. Also, I wanted to know if anyone knows if JVB is just busy with school or is he also gone for awhile because of this issue?

I really feel bad about what happened in that thread - it seemed like no matter what was said it only got worse instead of better. Hopefully nothing like that will ever happen again.

I to have been thinking of leaving the forum, but I am finding it hard to do that as it goes agaisnt everything that I have recently come to believe in.


@kiya, DvB, Lewis, and anyone else that finds it necessary to leave,
I sincerely pray that WE all will you here again.

This is one place that I thought I could get away from the hassel of RL on a daily basis to get help, have a conversation(not that I joined in but only a few, I am shy even on-line), learn new things that I could do with my pc, and just relax and have a good time. That is the way it used to be for me, that is why I started the thread 'What happen to this forum', I did not get My thoughts across like I wanted to and other forum members help that happen. This forum has changed for the worse and WE as Forum Members can change it back. We all need to be aware that not all people are the same and even tho someone might upset us, we need to accept them for who the are.

On a finale note I have done a little copy and paste from the FAQ:

Quote

What are the rules?


Registration as a User implies acceptance of the following terms and conditions:
- Participants shall not post any material likely to cause offence,....

This is the very first line.


If you do not understand me, just ask and I will try to clairify,

retrospective: i don't think this forum can change back to exactly what it was back when in its golden days. people come & go. people change. things can never be the same.

but courtesy, respect, fellowship can still be kept & maintained. this can happen with everyone's help.

what i can think of for now is this: whenever we see our forum friends(this means every member) did something which breaks the rules, we shouldn't go & virtually shout at them & tell them they've made a boo-boo. this is where pm comes in. & because telling members that they've done wrong can be very touchy, so tread carefully. & never ever assert too much when u know it's pointless & u cannot change the mind of that particular person. just let him/her go(& i don't mean banning).

remember johnson? he did a major boo-boo but somehow we're almost as guilty as many members scolded him publically which made him act even more hostile. we require tact. & that's not an easy skill 2 learn. i'm still learning, if u must know.

& DAD, if u're reading this, i never have put u down nor have i think badly of u in whatever case. & especially for a person of your calibre, i never thought of defending u as u are very firm & clear on your standing. as if a peashooter like me can help defending a formidable mind like u. so please keep on staying in this forum & keep on posting.

for the one & only time defending DAD, this dude is obviously ex-professor who must've taught for at least 15 years(just a guess). do u think he can just kick his habit of provoking minds? like an ex-soldier who would salute his flag whenever he sees it, like an ex-policeman who would ask interrogative questions, like a smoker who without thought would draw out a cigarette & light it up. thing is most people got him wrong. u can take a professor out of his university, but u can't take the professor out of the man.

as for DATD, the dude must've a bad day/week. dude, hope u're getting better.

let's not get fazed easily & not get pissed easily as well. this is the one & possibly the only forum that i am & will be in for life as i don't have the time nor the inclination for human interaction. i want 2 cherish this long distance fellowship.

love from malaysia.

Gosh, what happened in that 800*600 thread? I have never read it. I assume, something terrible, something wrong, offence and missunderstanding.

But, It is always easy to leave, it is difficult to stay and live with that.
Am am not blaming anybody for leaving, but, just give it a thought, even bad exp is exp. So, everyone has got a lesson, lets stay together and avoid such things from happening again.

I am really sorry that this happened here and the core and the heart of this forum is falling apart, don't let it happend.

As for those, who decided to leave, please accept my warmest wishes, and good bye.

@janggut

Thank you exceedingly janggut, you have restored my faith in the human mind and in bravery as well, if you catch my drift.
I really hope from the deepest of my heart that Kiya should read and post again to this forum; she was more than helpful, alive and extremely sensitive and I liked her more than most of you do; I began co-authoring a story with her and her style is fantastic; it is because of my great admiration to her that it hurt me very much that she criticised me harshly in public rather than levelling with me in private messages only. I was not rude and the man I posted to him that E-mail replied thanking me for my E-mail and was very positive. That is again why it even hurt me more that she would assume defence that was never needed. I miss her too, but we all need time for our wounds to heal. Kiya told me that her heart was here in this forum and I am sure she will return when she finds the right moment. I also hope that she changes her mind about cyber-friendship and that cyber-friends should not antagonise each other.

Thank you again janggut for being such a deep thinking man who has the courage to carry his cool words through a hell of flames.

My last words should be a humble call:

Kiya, please come back.

Too late, because playing RPG with plenty of hacking and slashing may induce reflexive reactions rather than deep thought reactions. You and many have reacted before thinking and evaluating, and I have seen many swings coming my way, but see my avatar, fortunately I have acquired a new shield, it is called “The Elven Shield of Thunder”, so you may go ahead and roar all you wish. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Many of those who contributed a whole lot left, still miss BeeGee around here, maybe one day, if things get better, and they are maybe watching but not participating they'll come back?

This won't be what it used to be, never will be, but we can't deny to try to get as close possible.


It's one of these days...
